A study is presented of the oscillatory shear-ordering dynamics of viscoelastic photonic crystal media, using an optical shear cell. The hard-sphere/“sticky”-shell design of these polymeric composite particles produces athermal, quasi-solid rubbery media, with a characteristic viscoelastic ensemble response to applied shear. Monotonic crystallization processes, as directly measured by the photonic stopband transmission, are tracked as a function of strain amplitude, oscillation frequency, and temperature. A complementary generic spatio-temporal model is developed of crystallization due to shear-dependent interlayer viscosity, giving propagating crystalline fronts with increasing applied strain, and a gradual transition from interparticle disorder to order. The introduction of a competing shear-induced flow degradation process, dependent on the global shear rate, gives solutions with both amplitude and frequency dependence. The extracted crystallization timescales show parametric trends which are in good qualitative agreement with experimental observations.

In the era of intelligent education, human behavior recognition based on computer vision is an important branch of pattern recognition. Human behavior recognition is a basic technology in the fields of intelligent monitoring and human-computer interaction in education. The dynamic changes of human skeleton provide important information for the recognition of educational behavior. Traditional methods usually use manual information to label or traverse rules only, resulting in limited representation capabilities and poor generalization performance of the model. In this paper, a kind of dynamic skeleton model with residual is adopted—a spatio-temporal graph convolutional network based on residual connections, which not only overcomes the limitations of previous methods, but also can learn the spatio-temporal model from the skeleton data. In the big bone NTU-RGB + D dataset, the network model not only improved the representation ability of human behavior characteristics, but also improved the generalization ability, and achieved better recognition effect than the existing model. In addition, this paper also compares the results of behavior recognition on subsets of different joint points, and finds that spatial structure division have better effects.

Abstract We proposed a theoretical spatio-temporal imaging method, which was based on the thermal model of laser ablation and the two-dimensional axisymmetric multi-species hydrodynamics model. By using the intensity formula, the integral intensity of spectral lines could be calculated and the corresponding images of intensity distribution could be drawn. Through further image processing such as normalization, determination of minimum intensity, combination and color filtering, a relatively clear species distribution image in the plasma could be obtained. Using the above method, we simulated the plasma ablated from Al-Mg alloy by different laser energies under 1 atm argon, and obtained the theoretical spatio-temporal distributions of Mg I, Mg II, Al I, Al II and Ar I species, which are almost consistent with the experimental results by differential imaging. Compared with the experimental decay time constants, the consistency is higher at low laser energy, indicating that our theoretical model is more suitable for the plasma dominated by laser-supported combustion wave.
